Abstract: A laminate film for protecting a printed image formed on a recording medium by an ink-jet recording system, comprising a surface layer, an intermediate layer and a penetrative layer formed on a heat-resistant substrate in that order. The surface layer and the intermediate layer have a thermally softening property, the intermediate layer has a glass transition temperature lower than that of the surface layer, and the penetrative layer has a thermally melting property.

Abstract: A coating liquid for use in an ink jet recording method comprising an image forming step of forming an image on a recording medium by an ink jet system with an ink comprising at least a pigment and a coating layer forming step of applying a coating liquid at least to a region including the image to form a coating layer having a film thickness of from 0.10 ?m or more to 1.0 ?m or less in at least a part thereof. The coating liquid comprises at least a slippery compound, water and a water-soluble organic solvent. The coating layer has a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.40 or less.

Abstract: A hardcoat for a plastic substrate film is provided which has good suitability for printing and satisfactory hardness, can prevent influence of the deformation of a plastic substrate film from extending to the hardcoat, and is resistant to cracking and peeling. The hardcoat is produced from a coating component containing one or more organic components having a polymerizable functional group and an inorganic filler, at least one of the organic components being free from a hydrogen bond-forming group. In the hard coat, the content of the inorganic filler in the surface of the hardcoat is higher than that in the interior of the hardcoat. The hardcoat can be applied to antireflection films and hologram labels.
